Volume of a metal block of length 4 cm, breadth 3 cm and height 2.5 cm

V = L ∙ B ∙ H

V = 4 ∙ 3 ∙ 2.5 = 30 cm³

mass = 500 g

Density :
ρ = m / V = 500 / 30 = 10 ∙ 50 / 10 ∙ 3 = 50 / 3 ( g / cm³ )

Volumea block of length 5cm , breadth 4c m,a nd height 3 cm:

V1 = 5 ∙ 4 ∙ 3 = 60 cm³

m1 = V1 ∙ ρ = 60 ∙ 50 / 3 = 3 ∙ 20 ∙ 50 / 3 = 20 ∙ 50 = 1000 g

OR

V1 / V = 60 cm³ / 30 cm³ = 2

Mass is directly proportional to the volume.
A body with double volume made of the same material has a double mass.

m1 = 2 ∙ m = 2 ∙ 500 = 1000 g
